inFamous 2 shots light up the net

Pic 2 is… Weird.

That looks so good. I’m surprised.

Looking good.

Lets hope Sucker Punch doesn’t lean towards Prototypes ‘wealth’ of powers gameplay too much.

I loved inFamous’ limited power selection, it allowed for quick use of every power mapped to the face buttons. Prototype’s power wheel was unwieldy and cumbersome, leading to many unused powers.

New Cole sucks ass, i mean really… Cheesy Nathan Drake.

@4: Yeah, right, as if the previous Cole looked unique with his bald head his wannabe-hard-ass-voice.

@5

Maybe so, but he had a distinct yellow jacket which could have been accentuated to create a signature.

However, the new Cole’s backpack with the melee weapon in it could easily be used as a recognisable symbol.

Geoff Keighley says that the game is impressive like Uncharted 2.

And that yellow jacket wasnt even in the game.

what is that in the backpack anyway?

@8

It’s the melee pipe weapon that Cole infuses with electricity and drags across the floor in the trailer.

@8 some kind of club which can be charged

EDIT: My bad, Nate is the game director’s name. I thought it was a ‘sly’ nod to Cole’s new look

Looks awesome, man this looks great. But the character in the trailer sounded like one horribly annoying ass dude. But this IS actually Cole? I guess this is a prequal then?

i might give this one a try. inFamous was okay. This one looks (as in story, gameplay, and graphics) a lot better already.

@12 – no it IS a sequel =/
@13 – agreed

It looks like the weapon from sherlock holmes

Give me Prototype 2 – The Better Game !

@16 Heh. I haven’t played inFamous, but you’re right, Prototype would have been a monster… If they’d finished it!!!

It was a badly broken proof-of-concept sketch posing as a game. Huge shame, it was a lot of fun to play even in that state.

If ingame looks as good as pic 1 then im sold, plus those pics have made me like the new look of Cole abit more now.
BTW for all the people who hate the new Cole just remember he still has time to change and they even said he could in the time remaining until release.

I’m glad they gave Zeke a new look. He looked so god damned silly in the first game that you couldn’t take him seriously. Hopefully in this game you’ll actually get to play/see how Cole managed to get out of the first city, especially since there was no exit by air, boat and the only way out was a heavily guarded wall on the bridge.

@16 – this

and tbh i like the new cole. It just really ticked me off that games have got to the point where even a “NORMAL EVERYDAY PERSON” (which cole was supposed to be after all) was gruff voiced and bald like every other action game star. Give him a suit of armour and no one would have thought him out of place in gears of war or halo =/

Now they’ve got rid of that so imo i welcome the change as jarring as it may be

@16
I think both Prototype and inFamous were on the same level of just okay.
inFamous played like a completed game. It felt finished. But the gameplay and story were just medicore. Actually, most of the time i caught myself falling asleep from how slow the action of the gameplay was.

Prototype felt unfinished. Too many bugs, camera issues, and last gen graphics. Gameplay was better as there were just so much going on at some points that it was ridiculously exciting. But it too suffered from points of just complete dullness.

Apparently SuckerPunch are taking into account peoples reactions of the new Cole, they might change him again.

@22 Fail link

i prefer the new cole. He does need some tweaking to make him stand out some more but i still perfer the new version to the old version. I agree with AHA on his view of the old Cole.

@25 Thanks
That would be awesome if they did add the old look as an unlock then people could choose
BTW +1 for the lass in the video shes very lady like which in the modern day is hard to find lol

I really don’t understand the change in the first place, he looked fine, just normal, regular, which is in my book very good.

I’m very interested in this game now. Looks great! I think I heard Jack T say these guys are aiming for “Uncharted 2 & GOW 3″ level of awesomeness during Sony’s presser.

Read a Kotaku preview on this and they say it it just looks incredible.

@29 Me too, but you know, i’m still skeptical. I’m a huge Infamous fan. This game somehow resonates with me, i don’t know how. It’s like something personal.

but second game and how character looks… Not so much.
But i read Kotaku’s, Geoff opinions and game sounds X10 times awesome then the first game.

This will be a day one, even if scores of the game on Metacritic will be 50-60. I just want to be amazed, or completely dissapointed in Sucker Punch.

looks great but I loved the gritty looking Cole better. Not this Brad Pitt wannabe look. WTF Sucker Punch?!

I was kinda dissapointed in how it looked in the trailer, i think there was some ingame stuff and it didn’t look all that impressive. These shots do however, hopefully not bullshots.

Looks amazing. Shame I got a bit bored of the first one and it remains on my ‘games to finish pile’. Might have to fire it up again. Got GOW3, orange box, red dead, batman aa, dead space and a few more to get done too.

Looks beauitful.

Fix Cole, and you easily easily have a sale. There’s a sale anyway.
